Descrizione

The essay focuses on the National Evaluation System, discussing about its possible effects on the school community’s subjects and on the governance of the educational system. After critically reviewing the concept of social equity in relation to education, the paper presents three different «logics» of the National Evaluation System, underlying for each of them the possible unforeseen and unintended effects. The aim is to consider whether and under what conditions such evaluation system could increase social equity and reduce social inequalities or could reproduce or even intensify them. The authors outline some perverse effects linked to its implementation, in particular related to the typically bureaucratic formal adaptation to the assessment requirements by teachers and headmasters. On the other hand, the use of the evaluation as a leverage for improving the active participation of school stakeholders could pave the way that leads from school evaluation to school improvement.
